Step 1: Create a partition:
# sudo fdisk /dev/nvme0n1
Choose “n” to create a new partition Then "p" and "1" for new partition Using default paratmeter, "w" to write data to disk
Step 2: Create a file system on it:
# sudo mkfs -t ext4 /dev/nvme0n1p1
Step 3: Create a mount point somewhere convenient:
# sudo mkdir /media/nvme
Step 4: Mount the new partition on that mount point:
# sudo mount /dev/nvme0n1p1 /media/nvme
Step 5: Permanently Mount the Device
Step 5a. To find the UUID first
# sudo blkid
Step 5b: To get it to mount every time, add a line to /etc/fstab:
UUID=nvme_UUID /media/nvme ext4 defaults 0 0
(where nvme_UUID is the value taken from “sudo blkid”)
Step 6 (Optional): At this point, the whole thing belongs to ‘root’
To change the ownership to a specific user (with the partition mounted):
# sudo chown -R user:usergroup /media/nvme
